AGOL Date fields how to convert them to strings

JoseSanchez

Good morning,

date fields when I read a recorrd froma hosted layer in AGOL have nummeric values:

this is the value for this field: "created_date": 1719488318485

Python:

record = query_result1.features[0]
createddateAGOL = record.attributes["created_date"]

How do I convert this numeric value to a data that I can compare with a record from a SDE feature class

Thanks

Use this to convert to a date/time object:

from datetime import datetime as dt

created_date = record.attributes["created_date"]
my_dt = dt.utcfromtimestamp(created_date / 1000)

From there, there are various date/time formatting options:

You can pass a date/time value directly into a method like edit_features or you can pass a timestamp in the same format that the query returned it in.
